Mrs. McGrath - Tommy Makem[00:00:00]
'Oh Mrs McGrath '[00:00:02]
The sergeant said[00:00:03]
'Would you like to make a soldier[00:00:04]
Out of your son Ted[00:00:06]
With a scarlett coat[00:00:07]
And a big cocked hat[00:00:08]
Oh Mrs McGrath [00:00:09]
Wouldn't you like that '[00:00:10]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:00:11]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:00:13]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:00:15]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:00:18]
Now Mrs McGrath[00:00:22]
Lived on the sea shore[00:00:23]
For the space of seven long years or more[00:00:24]
She spied a ship coming into the bay[00:00:26]
'Here's my son Teddy [00:00:28]
Wisha clear the way'[00:00:29]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:00:31]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:00:33]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:00:35]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:00:37]
'Oh captain dear where have you been[00:00:41]
Or have you been sailing[00:00:43]
On the Mediterranean[00:00:44]
Have you any tidings of my son Ted[00:00:46]
Is the poor boy living or is he dead '[00:00:48]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:00:50]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:00:52]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:00:54]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:00:56]
Then up came Ted without any legs[00:01:00]
And in their place [00:01:03]
He had two wooden pegs[00:01:04]
She kissed him a dozen times or two[00:01:05]
'Holy Moses [00:01:07]
It isn't you'[00:01:08]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:01:09]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:01:11]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:01:13]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:01:16]
'Now were you drunk or were you blind[00:01:20]
When you left your two fine legs behind[00:01:22]
Or was it walking upon the say[00:01:24]
Wore your two fine legs[00:01:26]
From the knees away '[00:01:27]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:01:29]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:01:31]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:01:33]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:01:35]
'No I wasn't drunk and I wasn't blind[00:01:39]
When I left my two fine legs behind[00:01:41]
A big cannon ball on the fifth of May[00:01:44]
Tore my two fine legs[00:01:46]
From the knees away'[00:01:47]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:01:48]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:01:50]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:01:52]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:01:54]
'Oh Teddy my boy '[00:01:59]
The widow cried[00:02:00]
'Your two fine legs[00:02:01]
Were your mammy's pride[00:02:02]
Stumps of a tree wouldn't do at all[00:02:03]
Why didn't you run[00:02:05]
From the big cannon ball '[00:02:06]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:02:07]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:02:09]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:02:11]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:02:14]
'All foreign wars I do proclaim[00:02:18]
Between Don John[00:02:20]
And the King of Spain[00:02:21]
I'd rather have my Teddy as he used to be[00:02:24]
Than the King of France[00:02:27]
And his whole navy'[00:02:28]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:02:30]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:02:32]
With your too-ri-a fol-di-diddle-da [00:02:34]
Too-ri oor-ri oor-ri-a[00:02:37]
